Carl Porter is first a bird hunter and a walking hunting dog trainer and understands what a bird hunter wants and needs from his bird dog. He trains pointing, flushing and retrieving dogs for the avid outdoorsman. When the dog is finished he will respond to whistle and verbal commands, be controllable in and out of the field, be steady to wing and shot and retrieve to hand. Carl has competed as an avid amateur field trial handler at the local, regional and national field trial levels before turning pro. He has been Eldon Hongo's assistant for the last 5 years and now works in conjunction with Eldon Hongo and Doug Stocks to train, handle and scout for competition field trial and personal hunting dogs.
